About this Cook
I found years ago that I have a passion for cooking. It really came in 3 phases. 1st moving from home and missing certain things mom cooked. 2nd moving to a different part of the country and having to learn things I couldn't get here. 3nd, I found Emeril Lagasse and Alton Brown on the food network.
My favorite things to cook
Anything braised. Supreme de poulet, I have my own version to die for.
My favorite family cooking traditions
none, mom knows how to, but doesn't enjoy it.
My cooking triumphs
You do not want to enter an Iron Chef competition against me.
My cooking tragedies
There are a few, but I've learned to research first.

Chicken Marsala
I know there are a ton of reviews on this but just had to add my own twist to the recipe. First off I try to do as much the day before in prep as I can, it makes things much easier when I go to cook the dish. I doubled the mushrooms and sauteed them in butter/oil/salt n pepper, just till they released their juices. I also carmelized an onion. I put this away in a tupperware in the fridge. I then took my chicken breasts and thinned them so I had half chicken breasts. I then put those away. The day of, I floured the chicken breast halves as the recipe called for using more oregeno and sauteed them on one side. (I had to do it in batches) I then put the chicken back in the pot raw flour side down, and added the mushrooms and onion with their juice. I added a little more marsala, and a little more sherry to make plenty of sauce. I use a good drinking sherry, not cooking sherry. I braised for 20 minutes stirring twice. I was outstanding. I served this over fettuccine dressed with olive oil/butter/salt n pepper/parsley.

Red Raspberry Vinaigrette
I cut the recipe in half as that made plenty. It was wAY to sweet. I added salt n pepper, and a tablespoon n a half of dijon, and got raves for the dressing. It went from 3 stars to 4.

Fried Corn with Bacon
Wow, so good. I used red bell pepper because it is sweeter then green. I also added a small jar of drained pimentos. Pork fat rules.
